secretagentmole 1,701 Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Tis nearly time for Christmas and the scrotes are starting up again! Someone on Airgunbbs put up a link to Freeads, on which there was a nice advert for "A Sand Tuned" HW97, that was "doing 11.8ft lb with Bisley Magnums". For an unbelievable price of £250. In Cheltenham of all places. Folks if something seems to be too good to be true in Cheltenham may I suggest that you remember to only buy in a face to face deal. Remember who liveth there and has been somewhat quiet after their release from one of Her Majesties residential units... Edited October 13, 2015 by secretagentmole 5 Quote Link to post

He has a 5 year prohibition from owning a firearm (air rifles included).Of course PC John Davies at Tewksbury would need to be advised of your suspicions, the advert number, the website etc etc!

Rez 4,961 Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 If that's doing 11.8 with magnums, it'll be well over the limit with 'standard weight' lead. Just saying. Quote Link to post
